EffectiveÌýFall 2014, Geology 313 replaced Geology 423, Geology 333 replaced Geology 311, Geology 343 replaced Geology 341, Geology 353 replaced Geology 373, and Geophysics 351 replaced Geophysics 355 as the core departmental courses for Majors and Honours students and serves as prerequisites for the appropriate courses.
45 units (7.5 full-course equivalents) - Geology 201, 202 or 203, 313 or 423, 323, 333 or 311, 337, 343 or 341, 353 or 373, 381, 401, 403 or 503, 445, 505, 571, 597
- Students who have taken Geology 341 (discontinued) do not need to take, and may not receive credit for, either Geology 343 or 445. For these students, Geology 341 replaces Geology 343 and Geology 445 must be replaced with another 3 units (0.5 full-course equivalent) option from the field of Geology.
3 units (0.5 full-course equivalent) - Option from the field of Geology (Geology 441 is recommended)
6 units (1.0 full-course equivalent) - Geophysics 351 or 355, 565
6 units (1.0 full-course equivalent) - Physics 211 or 221, 223
6 units (1.0 full-course equivalent) - Chemistry 201 or 211, and 203 or 213
3 units (0.5 full-course equivalent) - Mathematics 249 or 265 or 275
3 units (0.5 full-course equivalent)- Mathematics 253 or 267 or 277
3 units (0.5 full-course equivalent) - Mathematics 211
3 units (0.5 full-course equivalent) - Mathematics 331
3 units (0.5 full-course equivalents) - Statistics 327
3 units (0.5 full-course equivalents) - Science 311
12 units (2.0 full-course equivalents) - Science or Engineering options chosen from the following (see Notes):
- Applied Mathematics 307 or 311*, 413*, 415*
- Chemistry 311, 315, 321*, 331, 333, 351, 353, 371, or 373
- Civil Engineering 423*, 523*, 525*
- Computer Science 217 or 231 or 235, Computer Science 219 or 233
- Engineering 481*
- Geology courses (from the field of Geology)*
- Geophysics 355*, 453*, 457*, 559*, or other courses from the field of Geophysics
- Mathematics 311*, 349*, 375 or Mathematics 321 or Statistics 321
- Petroleum Engineering 507*, 513*, 515, 523*, 543*
- Physics 321, 323, 325
*Recommended options
9 units (1.5 full-course equivalents) - Option (Science or Engineering options are recommended)
15 units (2.5 full-course equivalents) - Breadth requirement: Non-science options (see Notes)
Notes:
- The Major program may contain a maximum of 66 units (11 full-course equivalents) from the field of Applied and Environmental Geology, and the Honours program may contain a maximum of 78 units (13 full-course equivalents) from the field of Applied and Environmental Geology.
- 600-level courses are available to fourth year students with prerequisites and consent of the Department.
- In order to meet the academic requirements for registration with APEGA, the Applied and Environmental Geology Majors program must include, in addition to the physics, chemistry and statistics courses already required in the program, 3 units (0.5 full-course equivalent) in one of biology, chemistry, computer science, statistics or physics. This choice must be made from either the 12 units (2.0 full-course equivalents) Science or Engineering Options or the 9 units (1.5 full-course equivalents) Options for the Applied and Environmental Geology Majors program.
- These 15 units (2.5 full-course equivalents) and Science 311 form the 18 units (3.0 full-course equivalents) non-science course requirements selected from Faculties other than the Faculty of Science (see Table I, 3.4. Program Requirements for courses that may not be used to satisfy this requirement). Of these 18 units (3.0 full-course equivalents) , students must take at least 6 units (1.0 full-course equivalent) from the Faculty of Arts (see (d) Breadth requirement in 3.4 Program Requirements.
